I almost hate to post this here, because it is so basic. But my mind isn't
the same as it used to be.

I am using asp with access db on ms server

total_score is my field from a table within the db., I wish to format this
to show commas, but no decimal. Rounding in other words. What is the code
for this please, can someone show me?

i know it is something like  var = format(total_score,0,0) or something to
that effect.
Please don't make me feel like too much like a complete idiot for not
remembering this..lol
Any help would be appreciated

The weird thing is, it is formated correctly within the Access DB, and the
commas show there, but the display on the page doesn't show the commas. See

You mean, you want to have a thousands seperator with commas?

That depends on your regional settings and do:

<%=formatnumber(myNumber,0)%>
